Description

Die vorliegenden Erfindung betrifft einen Klingenschutz für eine Klinge eines Messers, einer Schere oder dergleichen.The present invention relates to a blade guard for a blade of a knife, scissors or the like.

Zwischen Herstellung und Verkauf entsprechender Produkte ist einerseits Klinge vor Bruch, Verschmutzung und dergleichen zu schützen, andererseits Transportpersonal, Verkaufspersonal, Käufer usw. sind vor der Klingenschneide zu schützen. Somit besteht ein Bedarf an einer Verpackung zumindest für die Klinge für den Zeitraum zwischen Herstellung und Benutzung. Darüber hinaus muß das Produkt in üblicher Weise mit Informationen versehen, beschriftet und ausgezeichnet werden.Between the manufacture and sale of corresponding products, the blade must be protected against breakage, dirt and the like, and transport personnel, sales personnel, buyers, etc. must be protected from the blade edge. Thus there is a need for packaging, at least for the blade, for the period between manufacture and use. In addition, the product must be provided with information, labeled and labeled in the usual way.

Im Stand der Technik ist es bekannt, sogenannte Messerscheiden aus unterschiedlichen Materialien zu verwenden. Dabei werden Kunststoffhüllen, aber auch Papierhüllen und dergleichen verwendet. Diese bilden üblicherweise die Klingenkontur nach und haben meist sehr einseitige Schutzeigenschaften. So schützt eine Papierhülle oder eine Scheide aus weichem Kunststoff zwar Personen vor der Schneide, nicht jedoch eine Klinge vor Bruch. Darüber hinaus kann die Klinge zu Betrachtungszwecken leicht aus der Scheide entnommen werden, so daß sie selbst und der Betrachter wieder gefährdet sind. Auch sind entsprechende Scheiden leicht verlierbar.It is known in the prior art to use so-called knife sheaths made of different materials. Plastic sleeves, but also paper sleeves and the like are used. These usually simulate the blade contour and usually have very one-sided protective properties. For example, a paper cover or sheath made of soft plastic protects people from the cutting edge, but not a blade from breakage. In addition, the blade can be easily removed from the vagina for viewing purposes, so that it itself and the viewer are at risk again. Corresponding sheaths are also easily lost.

Aus der EP 0 819 618 A1 ist eine Verpackung für Messer und dergleichen bekannt, welche die Schneide schützend umfaßt und den Griff zum Anfassen frei läßt, wobei eine vordere und eine selbstklebende hintere Folie, beidseitig die Schneide überlappend abdecken und die überlappenden Bereiche der Folie aufeinander verklebt sind. Die dem Griff des Messers zugewandten Folienenden weisen einen nichtklebenden Anfasser zum Aufreißen der Verpackung auf. Durch die Anordnung der nichtklebenden Anfasser am Ende der Klinge, beziehungsweise am Übergang zum Griff, ist dieser Teil der Klinge, der eine häufig auftretende Bruchstelle darstellt, nicht vollumfänglich stabilisiert und somit nicht wirksam geschützt.A package for knives and the like is known from EP 0 819 618 A1, which covers the cutting edge in a protective manner and leaves the handle free to touch, with a front and a self-adhesive rear film on both sides Cover the cutting edge overlapping and the overlapping areas of the film are glued together. The film ends facing the handle of the knife have a non-adhesive handle for tearing open the packaging. Due to the arrangement of the non-adhesive handles at the end of the blade or at the transition to the handle, this part of the blade, which is a frequently occurring breaking point, is not fully stabilized and is therefore not effectively protected.

Desweiteren sind insbesondere im Selbstbedienungsbereich blisterähnliche Verpackungen bekannt, bei welchen die Messer, Scheren und dergleichen insgesamt mit Schweißfolie auf einen Träger aufgeschweißt werden. Diese Verpackungen sind üblicherweise sehr unansehnlich, sperrig und stellen einen erhöhten Materialaufwand dar.Furthermore, especially in the self-service area, blister-like packaging is known, in which the knives, scissors and the like are welded onto a carrier with welding foil as a whole. These packaging are usually very unsightly, bulky and represent an increased cost of materials.

Ausgehend vom vorbekannten Stand der Technik liegt der vorliegenden Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Klingenschutz bereitzustellen, welcher mit geringem Aufwand an Material und mit geringem Fertigungsaufwand erstellbar ist, welcher unverlierbar ist, einen wirksamen Schutz sowohl für die Klinge als auch für Personen darstellt, gleichzeitig als Informationsträger in Form eines Etiketts verwendbar ist und darüber hinaus eine weitestgehende Betrachtung und Prüfung des Produktes zuläßt.Starting from the known prior art, the present invention has for its object to provide a blade guard that can be created with little effort in material and with little manufacturing effort, which is captive, an effective protection for both the blade and people, at the same time as Information carrier in the form of a label can be used and moreover allows the product to be viewed and checked as far as possible.

Zur technischen Lösung der Aufgabe wird mit der Erfindung vorgeschlagen ein Klingenschutz für eine Klinge eines Messers, einer Schere oder dergleichen während eines Transportes, Anbietens, Ausstellens, Vertriebes und dergleichen, bestehend aus zwei einstückig miteinander ausgebildeten im wesentlichen kongruenten Teilflächen, von denen wenigstens eine an einer Oberfläche im wesentlichen vollflächig mit einem Klebstoff versehen ist und welche die Klinge zwischen sich aufnehmend miteinander verklebbar sind dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß die beiden Teilflächen entlang einer mit einer Perforation versehenen Faltkante miteinander verbunden sind und wenigstens eine der Teilflächen einen aus dem Kongruenzbereich herausstehenden Überstand aufweist.To achieve the technical solution to the problem, the invention proposes a blade guard for a blade of a knife, scissors or the like during transport, offering, exhibiting, selling and the like, consisting of two essentially congruent partial surfaces formed in one piece, at least one of which is at least one a surface is provided with an adhesive essentially over the entire surface and which the blade can be glued to one another between them, characterized in that the two partial surfaces are connected to one another along a perforated folding edge and at least one of the partial surfaces has a protrusion protruding from the congruence region.

Gemäß der Erfindung werden zwei einstückig miteinander ausgebildete im wesentlichen kongruente Teilflächen gebildet, von denen wenigstens eine an ihrer Oberfläche mit Klebstoff versehen ist. Beide Teilflächen werden die Klinge zwischen sich aufnehmend miteinander verklebt. Da die mit Klebstoff versehene Oberfläche im wesentlichen vollflächig klebend ist, kleben zum einen die zwei Teilflächen aneinander, zum anderen klebt die Folie auch an der entsprechenden Klingenoberfläche. Somit ist der Klingenschutz bis zur vollständigen Entfernung unverlierbar an der Klinge angeordnet. Im wesentlichen vollflächig mit Klebstoff versehen bedeutet, daß zumindest die über die Klinge hinausstehenden Teilflächenbereiche miteinander verklebbar sind und wenigstens an einer Stelle eine Verklebung der Teilfläche mit der Klinge erfolgen kann. Die Teilflächen haben eine Kontur, die wenigstens in Teilbereichen größer ist als die Klingenkontur. Insbesondere soll die Klinge entlang der Schneide durch überstehende und miteinander verklebte Teilflächen abgedeckt sein.According to the invention, two substantially congruent partial surfaces formed in one piece, of which at least one is provided with adhesive on its surface. Both parts of the blade are glued together between them. Since the surface provided with adhesive is essentially adhesive over the entire surface, the two partial surfaces stick to one another, and the film also sticks to the corresponding blade surface. The blade guard is thus captively arranged on the blade until it is completely removed. Providing adhesive over the entire surface means that at least the partial surface areas projecting beyond the blade can be glued to one another and at least at one point the partial surface can be glued to the blade. The partial areas have a contour that is larger than the blade contour at least in partial areas. In particular, the blade should be covered along the cutting edge by protruding and glued partial areas.

Gemäß einem weiteren vorteilhaften Vorschlag der Erfindung hat wenigstens eine der Teilflächen einen aus dem Kongruenzbereich herausstehenden Überstand. Dieser kann als Handhabe zum Abziehen des Klingenschutzes von der Klinge dienen, da der Überstand leicht ergreifbar ist.According to a further advantageous proposal of the invention, at least one of the partial areas has an overhang protruding from the congruence area. This can serve as a handle for removing the blade guard from the blade, since the protrusion is easy to grasp.

Vorteilhafterweise sind die Teilflächen im wesentlichen rechteckig, wobei aus gestaltungstechnischen Gründen die Kanten gerundet sein können. Zudem wird mit der Erfindung vorgeschlagen, daß wenigstens eine der Teilflächen ihrerseits in Flächensegmente aufgeteilt ist. Dies kann beispielsweise durch Anordnung einer Perforierung erfolgen. Dadurch wird es ermöglicht, ein vollständiges leichtes Abziehen des gesamten Klingenschutzes zu verhindern. Zum einen wird dadurch der Schutz besser gewährleistet, zum anderen wird auch die Klinge vor mutwilligen Manipulationen geschützt. Auch kann der Klingenschutz zur Vertriebssicherung mitverwendet werden.Advantageously, the partial surfaces are essentially rectangular, and the edges can be rounded for design reasons. In addition, the invention proposes that at least one of the partial areas is in turn divided into surface segments. This can be done, for example, by arranging a perforation. This makes it possible to prevent the entire blade guard from being pulled off easily. On the one hand, the protection is better guaranteed, on the other hand, the blade is also protected against willful manipulation. The blade guard can also be used to secure sales.

Der Klingenschutz kann aus Papier gebildet sein, aus Kunststoff oder aus Kombinationen. Wenigstens eine der Teilflächen ist eine Klebefolie. Besonders vorteilhaft ist es, wenn beide Teilflächen aus einem rechteckigen Stück einer Klebefolie einstückig miteinander zusammenhängend ausgebildet sind. Die Klebefolie muß nurmehr um die Klinge gefaltet und verklebt werden. Eine der Teilflächen ist vorzugsweise vollständig oder wenigstens teilweise durchsichtig ausgebildet. Wenigstens eine der Teilflächen ist als Informationsträger ausgestaltet, d. h. eingefärbt, bedruckt oder hinterlegt. Informationen können Produktinformationen, Herstellerinformationen, Preisinformationen und dergleichen sein.The blade guard can be made of paper, plastic or combinations. At least one of the sub-areas is an adhesive film. It is particularly advantageous if the two partial surfaces are formed integrally with one another from a rectangular piece of adhesive film. The adhesive film only has to be folded and glued around the blade. One of the partial surfaces is preferably completely or at least partially transparent. At least one of the partial areas is designed as an information carrier, i. H. colored, printed or deposited. Information can be product information, manufacturer information, price information and the like.

Als Klebstoff wird vorzugsweise ein leicht lösbarer Haftkleber verwendet, der auch sonstigen Randbedingungen entsprechend ausgewählt ist, also beispielsweise lebensmittelecht und dergleichen. Die Haftungseigenschaften müssen einerseits einen sicheren Halt des Klingenschutzes an der Klinge und zwischen den Teilflächen gewährleisten, andererseits ein leichtes Abziehen des Klingenschutzes von der Klinge ermöglichen.An easily removable pressure sensitive adhesive is preferably used as the adhesive, which is also selected in accordance with other boundary conditions, for example food-safe and the like. The adhesive properties must on the one hand ensure that the blade guard is held securely on the blade and between the partial surfaces, and on the other hand allow the blade guard to be easily removed from the blade.

Mit der Erfindung wird ein einfach herstellbarer und wirksamer Klingenschutz bereitgestellt. Es kann sich beispielsweise um einen Klingenschutz in Etikettform handeln, welcher mit an sich bekannten Mitteln als endlos bedruckbarer Formularsatz erstellen läßt. Solche aus Klebefolie bestehenden Etiketten können mit den entsprechenden Informationen bedruckt werden und maschinelle an fertiggestellten Klingen aufgebracht werden. Die Klinge ist selbst gegen Bruch und Verschmutzung geschützt, zugleich ist die Schneide abgedeckt und somit sind Personen gegen unbeabsichtigte Schnitte geschützt. Durch die Wahl eines durchsichtigen Teilflächenbereiches läßt sich die Klinge jedoch vollständig betrachten, und der Klingenschutz läßt sich leicht entfernen ohne dabei leicht verlierbar zu sein.The invention provides a blade guard that is easy to manufacture and effective. It can be, for example, a blade guard in the form of a label, which can be created as an endlessly printable set of forms using known means. Such labels consisting of adhesive film can be printed with the appropriate information and applied mechanically to finished blades. The blade is itself against breakage and Contamination protected, at the same time the cutting edge is covered and thus people are protected against unintentional cuts. By choosing a transparent partial surface area, however, the blade can be viewed completely, and the blade guard can be easily removed without being easily lost.

Ein Klingenschutz 1 besteht aus einer Klebefolie aus Kunststoff oder aus Papier, die an einer Oberfläche vollflächig mit einem leicht lösbaren Haftkleber versehen ist. Der Klingenschutz 1 ist beispielsweise als Kunststoffetikett auf einem Lochrandträger angeordnet und somit mit Laserdruckern und dergleichen leicht bedruckbar. Durch das Bedrucken werden zwei Teilflächen 3 und 4 gebildet, wobei die Teilfläche 3 mit Informationen 6 bedruckt ist, während die Teilfläche 4 als durchsichtige Teilfläche verblieben ist. Eine Teilfläche 3 ist im gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel ein Überstand 5 ausgebildet.A blade guard 1 consists of an adhesive film made of plastic or paper, which is provided on one surface with an easily releasable pressure sensitive adhesive. The blade guard 1 is arranged, for example, as a plastic label on a perforated edge support and can therefore be easily printed on with laser printers and the like. Two partial areas 3 and 4 are formed by the printing, partial area 3 being printed with information 6, while partial area 4 has remained as a transparent partial area. A partial surface 3 is formed in the embodiment shown, a protrusion 5.

Eine Messerklinge 2 ist an einem Messergriff 10 angeordnet und hat in üblicher Weise eine Schneide 7, eine im wesentlichen gerade verlaufende Oberkante 8 und eine Spitze 9.A knife blade 2 is arranged on a knife handle 10 and in the usual way has a cutting edge 7, an essentially straight upper edge 8 and a tip 9.

Entlang der Trennkante zwischen den Teilflächen 3 und 4 wird der Klingenschutz 1 gefaltet und die beiden Teilflächen 3 und 4 werden jeweils auf eine der beiden Oberflächen der Messerklinge 2 aufgeklebt. Dabei werden die Bereiche der Teilflächen 3 und 4, die über die Klinge herausstehen miteinander verklebt. Vorzugsweise wird dabei der Verklebungsbereich die Schneide 7 abdeckend angeordnet, während entlang der im wesentlichen geraden Oberkante 8 auch die freien Kanten des Klingenschutzes 1 verlaufen. Der Überstand 5 steht leicht erfaßbar aus dem Verbund heraus und erleichtert somit ein Abziehen des Klingenschutzes 1 von der Messerklinge 2. An einer Oberfläche ist die Teilfläche 3 mit den aufgedruckten Informationen 6 zu sehen, an der anderen Oberfläche ist durch die durchsichtige Teilfläche 4 die Messerklinge 2 vollständig betrachtbar.The blade guard 1 is folded along the separating edge between the partial surfaces 3 and 4 and the two partial surfaces 3 and 4 are each on one of the two Glued surfaces of the knife blade 2. The areas of the partial areas 3 and 4 which protrude from the blade are glued to one another. In this case, the bonding area is preferably arranged to cover the cutting edge 7, while the free edges of the blade guard 1 also run along the essentially straight upper edge 8. The protrusion 5 protrudes easily from the composite and thus makes it easier to remove the blade guard 1 from the knife blade 2. The partial surface 3 with the information 6 printed on it can be seen on one surface, and the knife blade on the other surface through the transparent partial surface 4 2 fully observable.

Durch die Anordnung des Klingenschutzes 1 bleibt das Produkt vollständig betrachtbar und bewertbar, während die Messerklinge 2 gegen Verschmutzung und Bruch gesichert ist und der Klingenschutz 1 einen Schutz für Personen darstellt. Durch Wahl einer entsprechenden Folie stellt der über die Klinge 2 hinausstehende Verbundbereich zwischen den Teilflächen 3 und 4 einen steifen, unter normalen Umständen nicht knickenden Bereich dar, so daß die Produktpräsentation in verkaufsfördernder Weise ein sehr ordentliches Erscheinungsbild bietet.The arrangement of the blade guard 1 means that the product remains fully observable and assessable, while the knife blade 2 is secured against contamination and breakage and the blade guard 1 is a protection for people. By choosing a suitable film, the composite area between the partial surfaces 3 and 4 projecting beyond the blade 2 represents a stiff area which does not bend under normal circumstances, so that the product presentation offers a very neat appearance in a sales-promoting manner.

Das beschriebene Ausführungsbeispiel dient nur der Erläuterung und ist nicht beschränkend. Insbesondere kann die Flächenaufteilung variiert werden. Die Teilflächen müssen nicht ganzflächig durchsichtig oder ganzflächig bedruckt sein, sie müssen nicht einstückig ausgebildet sein und können darüber hinaus beispielsweise durch Perforationen oder dergleichen noch in Flächensegmente unterteilt sein.The exemplary embodiment described is only for explanation and is not restrictive. In particular, the area division can be varied. The partial surfaces do not have to be transparent or printed over the entire surface, they do not have to be formed in one piece and can also be divided into surface segments, for example by perforations or the like.
